Xiangyang Prefecture Pastoral Mansion.

In the back yard, there was a melodious piano sound, crisp and ethereal, wonderful.

Looking for the sound and leaving, in the east wing, the son Liu Qi, dressed in plain clothes, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, lips like grease, a bookcase, a guqin, slender fingers are plucking the strings, playing a warm movement, spread throughout the pastoral house, exquisite.

Outside the east wing, there were already seven or eight maids who stopped unconsciously, some leaned on the corridor, some looked forward to the east wing, and even closed their eyes to feel the beauty of the music.

"Madame!"

A maid couldn't help but lose her words, bowed down again and again to apologize, and fled in a panic around Cai's food tray with the food tray in her hand.

Immediately after, the remaining maids fled as if in a nightmare.

Cai is Liu Biao's new wife, Liu Biao's ex-wife Chen died quietly soon after giving birth to Liu Cong, Cai Mao found this opportunity, so he married his sister to Liu Biao as his wife, so that Cai Mao's power in Jingzhou is more stable and unshakable.

Although Cai is the elder of his son Liu Qi, but in fact the two are about the same age, if they are put in the current society, the two of them are wandering together in the bustling commercial city, 12% of them will think that the two are sisters and brothers, and it is impossible to guess that the two are really mother and son.

In addition, Cai's figure is slender, uneven, and his skin is fair and shiny, so he is even younger.

However, as the son Liu Qi grew up, he had a very deep understanding of the deep roots of the Cai family's power in Jingzhou, so he began to find ways to weaken the Cai family's power, which offended the Cai family.

Originally, the Cai family wanted to support their eldest son Liu Qi, hoping that the Cai family would still be able to endure for a long time after a hundred years of Liu Biao, but they never thought that their son Liu Qi would not have a good face for the Cai family at all, so the Cai family had to give up this plan and turn the target to his younger brother Liu Cong.

Liu Cong is still young. has no defenses against this stepmother and the forces of the Cai family, as long as anyone is good to him, he will be good to whom, and he has no scheming. In this way, the Cai clan can easily control Liu Cong, and with Liu Cong's hole card, the next goal is to kill another Liu Qi who inherits the position of state pastor.

In the inner courtyard, Cai's eyes were like electricity. His mouth pursed, he snorted coldly, and whispered: "Play the piano!" So interested! After a few days, you won't have anything to play again. ”

The water sleeve flicked behind him, and Cai's floated away.

In the east wing, Wei Yan leaned against the window, and through that gap, he saw Cai's departure with hatred, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly closed the window, turned around and hugged his fists and said, "Childe!" The end has already been ascertained. The foothold of Chen Deng's companions was in the Tai'an Post House in the east of Xiangyang City, and there were many people accompanying him, almost occupying the entire Tai'an Post House. ”

The sound of the piano was still the same, Liu Qi frowned, continued to play the piano, and asked, "How many people are there?" ”

Wei Yan blurted out: "There are about thirty people in the post house, and in the farmhouse outside Xiangyang City, there are still seventy or eighty people. ”

"So much!?" Liu Qi was a little surprised.

"That's true!"

Wei Yan confirmed: "After they gathered at the Dayu Temple that day, they ordered people to follow them closely, and after three or five days of pursuit, they completely discovered the traces of these people. ”

"What's wrong with these people?"

Liu Qi pressed the strings with his backpalm. The sound of the piano was cut off suddenly, the sword eyebrows were furrowed, and there was silence for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to ask.

"Childe rest assured. Although Chen Deng has many conspirators, most of them are female servants, as if the family migrated here, and they do not pose a threat to us, so it is not enough. ”

Wei Yan said confidently.

Gongzi Liu Qi sighed for a long time, for Liu Bei's external force. He just wanted to borrow it, not like luring a wolf into the house and giving Jingzhou to an imperial uncle he had never met.

"Did Cai Mao know these things?" Liu Qi continued to stroke the piano.

Wei Yan said: "I don't know for the time being! On that day, Liu Bei's subordinates knocked Cai Mao's spies unconscious before leaving, and since that day, Chen Deng rarely left the gate of the post house, just those scribes moving around. ”

Liu Qi snorted coldly: "This Uncle Liu Huang is really good, he actually wants to use Sun Quan to suppress his father and force him to accept himself, Gao!" It's really high! ”

The nursery rhyme was spread with the help of Sun Qian and others, and Wei Yan had already reported this to Liu Qi, and when Liu Biao was furious in the hall that day, the son Liu Qi actually knew that it was Chen Deng's ghost, but he turned a blind eye and did not explain it clearly to his father Liu Biao.

After all!

At this time, Liu Qi still needs to use Liu Bei's prestige to improve his status in Jingzhou, in order to resist the power of the Cai family, and now the son Liu Qi hopes that Liu Bei can come to Jingzhou as soon as possible, but he hopes that he can be defeated by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao and come to Jingzhou, so he has to use his own strength to become a chess piece in his Liu Qi's hands.

Recently, Jingzhou has been full of turmoil, like a sign before the war, which made people panic, but after dozens of days, this atmosphere has subsided, so Liu Qi is even more sure that this is a conspiracy of Liu Bei.

In fact, in history, in the days after Sun Quan succeeded to the throne, Eastern Wu made great efforts to govern and develop, and the national strength was already strong, and before Liu Bei came to Jingzhou, Sun Quan had crossed the river to attack Liu Biao, Gan Ning rebelled, Huang Zu died, and Jiangxia almost fell into the hands of Sun Quan.

The reason why Liu Bei asked Chen Deng to provoke the contradiction between the Sun and Liu families was that he wanted to break out this war in advance, so as to cooperate with his own itinerary and reach a seamless realm, which is the advantage of crossing the public, but this point is just a coincidence and rumors in the eyes of the sons Liu Qi, Liu Biao and Sun Quan.

Huang Zu ordered that all civil acts along the river be banned, including fishing, trading and other activities, and so on, so it has been more than half a month.

The so-called relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to draft the water, and not going down the river for half a month, the people on the riverside naturally can't bear it, so they sue the local county government again and again, and the county government has no choice but to reflect upwards, once or twice is fine, but dozens of complaints broke out in this half month, and there is no sign of conquest at all in this half month.

Huang Zu had no choice but to continue to react to Xiangyang Liu Biao, Huang Zu's attitude was very firm, it was okay to ban the river, then the state pastoral government must give the people some remedial measures to appease the people's hearts.

Liu Biao thought hard for a long time, but after all, there was no way but to respond and allow the people to go down the river to fish, and everything was as usual! Despite this, the order given to Huang Zu still required Huang Zu to strengthen his vigilance in case of accidents.

******************

Soochow Chaisang.

The first Sun Quan, dressed in a black robe, covered with a hundred flowers and straight-lined robe, sat upright on the main hall, majestic, dignified, not mighty.

A person flashed out of the next head, more than eight feet long, with a great posture, a vigorous body, a head held high, and an extraordinary style, this person is Jiangdong Mei Zhou Lang, known as Zhou Yu of "Song is wrong, Zhou Lang Gu".

"My lord! All warships, soldiers and horses, grain and grass are all ready, as long as Jiangxia is a little relaxed, it will definitely be able to set foot on Jiangxia in one fell swoop, approach Xiangyang, recover Jingzhou, and achieve the cause of the king. ”

Zhou Yu's face was full of joy, in the eyes of Zhou Yu and Lu Su, Jingzhou has always been an obstacle to the achievement of hegemony in Dongwu, and it is also the capital of Dongwu to achieve hegemony.

Now! The day is finally coming!

A person flashed out of the Wenchen table on the side, and saluted: "Lord! Although Jiang Xia had publicly lifted the ban at this time, he still felt that he should wait a little and be safe first. ”

In the hall, Zhou Yu looked up and laughed wildly: "Zi Jing is afraid that Liu will be loose on the outside and tight on the inside?" ”

Lu Su laughed, and hurriedly echoed: "Those who know me, Gong Jin also." ”

Zhou Yu laughed contemptuously and said disdainfully: "Zijing! You're good everywhere, but one thing! It's just that the guts are too small. The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and if you have to be safe, then how can you win the battle! Moreover, even if Liu Biao is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, my Dongwu soldiers are brave, why are I afraid of him Liu Biao! ”

There was a sigh in the general's seat, and they were all indignant, and they were already enthusiastic about Zhou Yu's generous statement.

Lu Su laughed, and didn't seem to pay attention to the sighs of the hall, but just lightly arched his hand: "Gong Jin's wisdom is unparalleled, how can he not know that he can fight us well, but he can destroy the enemy at the least cost, so why bother to make dangerous moves?" ”

The head Sun Quan couldn't help nodding and praised: "Zijing's words are very much in line with my wishes!" How precious is my Jiangdong Erlang's life, and how can he be compared to the snake and mouse in Jingzhou, in my opinion, it will be postponed for half a month, and when Liu Biao is really relaxed, it will be the day when I will attack.

Gong Jin can fight well and be invincible, this battle will definitely be able to sweep Jiangxia, kill Huang Zu, go straight to Xiangyang, and avenge my father! ”

Sun Quan is worthy of being a master, when the two of them have their own opinions, they can take care of both, their skills can achieve their own goals, and they can fully appease everyone, so that they will not be hit, this kind of control is by no means available to ordinary lords.

Another person flashed out of the hall, and he regarded it as the veteran Cheng Pu.

"My lord! In this battle against Jiangxia, the last general hopes to be able to act as a striker, and at the first time, he will be the first to rush into Jiangxia, with a sad hand, and avenge the ancestors! ”

Immediately after, Huang Gai and Han Dang stood up together.

"The last general is willing to act as a striker and avenge the ancestors!"

Sun Quan hurriedly turned into the hall, supported his three veterans, and said in a loud voice: "The loyalty of the three uncles, how can the little nephew not know, but the uncle is already old, why should he go to the battlefield in person, it is better for the three uncles to accompany the little nephew, how so?" ”

Huang Gai was a little annoyed, and said bluntly: "Lord! Although Lian Po is old, he still has more than enough courage, I am not as old as Lian Po, how can I not go to the battlefield, and I hope that the lord will be perfect. ”

"Of course I have to go to the battlefield, but I have to accompany my little nephew!" Sun Quan immediately replied.

Everyone was shocked, could it be that Sun Quan wanted to drive the expedition in person!?

Zhou Yu hurriedly clenched his fists and admonished: "Lord! Think twice"

"Suffer~"

Sun Quan waved his hand: "In this battle, I want to personally conquer Liu Biao, and I must defeat Liu Biao and avenge my father!" (To be continued.) )
